BATB 8

[KUberry]

As much as it was good to see Tom in the finals, I wish PJ would have beat him and went instead. PJ would have fucked sewa up and gone back and forth with Shane for 45 minutes like he did with Paul.

[jomeara1]

So I just watched the finals on youtube earlier. God that was terrible.  At least when Morgan beat Pj a few years back it was actually a good game even though it was a shut out.

Because fuck The Berrics...

Holy shit Berra sucks at every aspect of life. 

Flatground champ Cody Cepeda can't fakie bigspin?!

[LesbianPUNCH]

It'd be interesting to tweak the rules for a more streamlined contest with a bit more balance. Maybe do it ping pong style. You get five attempts to score points and then the other skater gets five tries. If you fall trying to set a trick, it's the other skaters turn. That would at least curtail the stronghold these dudes have when they win the rochambeau. Who cares though, Berra sucks. He seemed drunk and attention-whore-ish.

[ill_Murray]

Everyone knows Sewa is going to do hardflip reverts but no one seems to practice them, I don't get it.  

Reverts > double flips

Shane's half cab late shuv is the best though.  

[sms_b]

I find it interesting that Shane O'Neil is literally the best skateboarder on the planet but rarely wins contests. I wonder if people trip on that, like "yea I beat Shane O'Neil", but in their heart they're really like, "I'll never be better than Shane O'Neil."

 

[Monkey_Mcpott]

I honestly feel like Sewa was probably gonna save the hardflip revert for later, he normally has a few more ticks he does before throwing that out. But after Berra gave Shane his fs flip landed then late pivot a pass after Sewa did a perfect 360 fs flip he was like "Damn! well fuck that!".

It's sucks that Sewa couldn't play Cody. The other GOAT flatland skater.

[bo bice]

seriously though, berra calls for a do-over on that hardflip AFTER shane already did it, what a fucking dork.  also shane didn't pivot on that last one, that's too generous. he did a f/s flip, then a kickturn.  but yeah, way too not shit slide.

[shit_for_brains]

Good to see skateboarding legend Patrick Fugit in there.

There was no fakie bigspin in that game. there was a fakie biggerspin and a halfcab late shuv, and cepeda didn't land either.

i swear some peoples laggy ass internet turns doubleflips into singles, and biggerspins into regular ones.

[Xen]

The whole thing was cringe worthy. Koston is such a tool and Berra blew it as a judge big time and Sewa put him in his place right after.

Shane and Tom choked.

Cepeda couldn't get a chance to koste...er double or pressure flip his way to a win

Sewa brought it and won.

Finals were pretty weak all said and done. I'll never watch a live berrics event again.

I'm not going to sit here and argue the semantics of big- vs bigger- so we'll just have to agree to disagree, but just know this...

You're the worst type of person and I hate you. 

[TreBombMartin]

Was rooting for Shane but I'm not super bummed Sewa won. The final game was boring but Sewa seems like a humble dude. I'll take popped 540 shuvs and frontside hardflips all day over double flips in every stance.

[SHARPSHOOTER]

How are people seeing the Shane O'Neill game?

I miss the old berrics honestly.  Just seemed cooler at the time.  Everything on the site just keeps getting lamer every year.

Nope. Not ever.

Anyways, you should know dogg, BATB- No feet on the ground that means no footplants no no complies

[360 frip]

If they want to make it vaguely interesting again they should allow all of those tricks. I can't even be bothered to watch Sewa do the same 5 tricks again in the final.

What a fucking snooze of a contest this has become.
